A Fun Way to Slow Down as a Family...
In today’s fast-paced world, it can be especially challenging to setaside quality family time.Wouldn't it be great if you could push a pausebutton on the clock and create more time with the ones you love?
Looking at old pictures together or watching home videos orDVD’s can help you do just that.
There's something about taking the time to reflect on the pastthat helps you to slow down and forget about your to-do list.
Remembering birthdays, holidays, and vacations spent with family and friends can put your focus back on what really matters and give you a new appreciation for the special momentsyou've shared.
My kids and I did this just the other day. It was such a sweetthing to watch a video of my son, back when he was two, singing aVeggie Tales song into the camera.And it made me smile when mydaughter turned to him and said, as she watched too,“Look how cuteyou are!”
We must’ve sat there for an hour “Awwwing” at all the memories we've shared.
And when we were done, I was more thankful than ever for our special times together--including the time we'd just spent watching them.
So the next time you feel overwhelmed by the how fast time isflying or how busy you are, pull your kids up next to you on thecouch, pop in a DVD from when they were younger, or get out thoseold photo albums or CDs, and take a walk down memory lane. Notonly can it help you slow down as a family and appreciate each othermore, it can also create a slice of quality time well spent.
